2007 Youth as Partners in Civic Leadership Conference



We hope that most workshops will be led by youth and adult teams and will be engaging, informative, inspiring and/or practical for both youth and adults who are involved in the civic life of their communities, schools, and organizations. Workshops should include information about how youth are involved in the issue you focus on and tactics that groups can take home to address a wide range of issues: use of media, community organizing strategies, leadership of youth/adult programs, etc. It may be helpful to provide space in your workshop for discussions of differing points of view. This year we have two themed Roundtables and workshops focusing on Healthy Living and Social Justice. Please see descriptions and concepts below.

We are still finalizing our program schedule, but we will be scheduling 60-minute Roundtable and Seminar presentations Friday evening, Saturday morning, and Saturday evening. Our goal is to have roundtables remain organic and discussion in nature but premediated can allow for greater participation.

“Focus on YOUth, help yourself before you can help others.” Learn to make mindful life decisions, expand your horizons, learn to be the impossible & deal with social problems of today.

Healthy Living Focused Roundtables- this is a group discussion focused on a specific topic and that allows all to share thoughts and feelings about that topic. Very organic in nature often with a youth facilitator (to keep track of time). Below you will find some broad topics that could fall under healthy living.

• Mindfulness

• Dieting

• Mental Health

• Sexual Health

• Spiritual Health

• Healthy Relationships

• Emotional Health

Healthy Living Focused Workshops- this is a seminar that focuses in more specifically on a topic then our roundtables, these allow a facilitator (primarily youth) to teach about a specific topic. Ideally these are engaging and active so that we can address all learning styles. Some examples include:

• Yoga/Meditation
